Hello every,
I apologize if this is not the place for this thread. I wasn't exactly sure where it should go. I have seen a lot of AN/PRC radio's for sale on ebay and know very little about them. So I did very little research on them but found a lot of the same information but not very in depth. I looked at the portables (AN/PRC-148 & AN/PRC-152) And the man packs (AN-PRC 77,113,117,119 & 150). I know these radio's vary in frequency ranges and power outputs, so I'm not really worried about that.
My main question is, what would be the advantage of owning one of these verses your public safety grade Motorola's, Kenwood's, Harris's, ECT. my second question is are these radio field programmable or do they require computer programming (Software, cables, ect.)
Thank you in advance and I'm sure I will have more questions along the way.
